Jiangnan Governor's Office.
While Hu Zongxian was discussing with his aides how to resolve the raiders 'attack on the coastal fishing villages, a native of the East Chamber had arrived at the governor's office.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
"Jiangnan Governor Hu Zongxian, listen up!”
Hu Zongxian's expression changed, and he quickly knelt down to listen to the decree.
"Jiangnan Governor Hu Zongxian, listen up.”
The man from the East Chamber opened the imperial edict and read it.
"The Emperor ordered the Jiangnan Governor Hu Zongxian to immediately select 100,000 Jiangnan soldiers and secretly enter the capital.”
"Respect this!"
"Hu Zongxian, receive the decree!" Hu Zongxian said respectfully.”
After receiving the imperial edict and settling down the children of the East Chamber, Hu Zongxian looked at the imperial edict in his hand with a solemn expression.
"His Majesty has summoned me to secretly bring troops into the capital. This…could it be that something major has happened in the capital?”
Ever since the rebellion of the Tumu Fortress, no emperor had ever mobilized a local army.
Such a serious matter, he had no choice but to be so cautious.
"Wen Chang, His Majesty summoned me to secretly bring troops into the capital. What do you think of this matter?”
Hu Zongxian said as he looked at a young strategist beside him.
Xu Wei's expression was also solemn. After thinking for a moment, he said,"In this subordinate's opinion, this matter is no trivial matter. Milord, you just have to follow His Majesty's orders.”
"This secret entry into the capital, presumably His Majesty must have made a big move. Milord must be careful.”
"We should immediately count the 100,000 elite soldiers and generals, rest day and night, and be careful not to expose our whereabouts. As His Majesty's surprise attack, it might play a crucial role.”
"Hmm…"
Hu Zongxian twirled his beard and said,"Wen Chang is right."
"How about this, Wenchang, accompany me to the capital to meet the emperor.”
When Xu Wei heard this, he was excited."Your subordinate will obey your orders!"
As one of the three great talents of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Wei's reputation was as resounding as Yang Shen's.
Unfortunately, Xu Wei repeatedly failed the imperial examination.
Later, he also gave up on the idea of taking the exam and became Hu Zongxian's aide.
However, failing the imperial examination did not mean that Xu Wei was untalented.
On the contrary, Xu Wei was talented and had a unique understanding of military affairs, which was why he was put in an important position by Hu Zongxian.
At this moment, entering the capital to meet the emperor and serve the emperor was the common wish of all the scholars, including Xu Wei.
Hu Zongxian also had the thought of introducing Xu Wei to the Emperor.
He himself also felt that with Xu Wei's literary talent and military strategy, it was really a pity for him to be an advisor.
He should have a broader platform to serve the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Hu Zongxian didn't dare to delay any longer and ordered,""Send Wen Zheng Ming, Tan Lun into the residence!"
After a while, two young men walked into the governor's office and bowed to Hu Zongxian.
"I am Tan Lun, Wen Zhengming greets the governor!”
"Tan Lun, I order you to be the temporary commander of Jiangnan. You will be in charge of all the defense matters in Jiangnan!" Hu Zongxian ordered.”
"If anything happens to Jiangnan, I will hold you responsible!”
Tan Lun was shocked. She quickly cupped her fists and said,"Yes, my lord! I will not fail my mission!"
Hu Zongxian continued,"Wen Zhengming, you are in charge of assisting Tan Lun and managing Jiangnan affairs.”
"If the pirates continue to harass the people of Ming, execute them immediately!”
Wen Zhengming nodded repeatedly,"Sir, I understand!"”
Tan Lun asked curiously,""Milord, why did you suddenly hand over such a great responsibility to us? What happened?”
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Just focus on what I've told you." Hu Zongxian waved his hand.”
"I will be leaving with Wen Chang for a while. You must not have any accidents during this period, understand?”
Tan Lun and Wen Zheming didn't say anything more and nodded.
After arranging the defense of Jiangnan, Hu Zongxian did not dare to delay. He went to the drill ground with Xu Wei and counted the 100,000 troops before entering the capital.
At the same time, Hetao Governor Wang Chonggu also received the Emperor's decree.
Wang Chonggu knew more than Hu Zongxian.
After all, the Hetao region that he was in charge of was not far from the Jiubian town, so the news would spread faster.
He had already learned that the Great General of Terror had applied to return to the capital to take up his post, and the Emperor had also agreed to the Great General of Terror's request.
Presumably, the Great General of Terror had already set off. He could not delay any longer to avoid ruining His Majesty's plans!
Wang Chonggu didn't understand why Zhu Houzhi had summoned him to secretly lead troops into the capital, but he instinctively guessed that it had something to do with the Great General of Fear entering the capital.
Wang Chonggu immediately gathered his generals and instructed them to pay attention to the defense of the Hetao region. After that, he counted the 100,000 troops and set off from the Hetao region towards the capital.
In an instant, on the Darming Dynasty's territory, two hundred thousand troops appeared to surround the north and south as they headed towards the capital.
And the mobilization of these two hundred thousand soldiers was just a single word from Zhu Houji.
In addition to the 200,000 soldiers that had secretly entered the capital, there was also the 200,000 soldiers led by Wang Shouren that returned to court.
In Wang Shouren's team, other than him, there was also Yu Dayou and his adjutant, Qi Jiguang.
A total of 400,000 troops rushed towards the capital!
